AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The solution achieves low peel adhesion, minimal residue, and rapid surface wetting, enhancing the usability and quality of protective films for electronic components and displays by reducing the risk of surface damage and improving post-removal surface integrity.

Problems solved by technology

If the protective film adheres too strongly to the substrate, removal can be difficult or cause damage to delicate surface features, such as printed designs or electronic traces.
Transfer of the adhesive to the substrate may degrade the appearance of the surface or interfere with subsequent operations on the surface such as chemical treatment, printing, or bonding.
Bubbles trapped between a protective film and substrate produce an unsightly and non-uniform construction that tends to increase the transfer of adhesive residue to the substrate.
Silicone PSAs are generally the most expensive of the three technologies, but have superior surface wetting and high-temperature performance.
While several silicone PSAs are available on the market, these materials leave detectable silicone residue on glass substrates, require excessive peeling force, or wet too slowly.
Each of these technical difficulties causes their own problems in production and end-user quality.
For example, silicone residue can be seen in the loss of paintability of glass substrates after hot aging in contact with the available PSAs.

example 2.1

hesion Formulation

[0084]This example illustrates a PSA formulation prepared by blending two vinyl siloxane gums with the preferred degree of polymerization to reach the preferred vinyl concentration.

[0085]A silicone PSA was prepared by combining 537.3 g of treated MQ resin solution from Example 1.1 (60% solids), 16.04 g of MH4Q3 resin, 1503 g of toluene, 1213 g of xylene, 999.1 g of vinyl siloxane gum having the formula MViDVi48D4950MVi, 999.7 g of vinyl siloxane gum having the formula MViDVi8D4990MVi, 3.198 g of hydride siloxane having the formula MDH33D23M, and 2.442 g of 1-ethynylcyclohexan-1-ol in a high-shear mixer and blending for 120 minutes at 70° C. The final PSA contained 40.2% solids and had a viscosity of 38,000 cP. A sample of the PSA was catalyzed with 50 ppm platinum as Karstedt's catalyst and cured to give a tape with a peel adhesion of 2 gf / inch and a probe tack of 40 g / cm7. When applied to glass substrates, the PSA showed fast surface wetting and facile bubble remo...

example 2.2

hesion Formulation with Gum Having Higher Degree of Polymerization

[0086]This example illustrates a PSA formulation made with vinyl siloxane gum having the highest preferred degree of polymerization.

[0087]A silicone PSA was prepared by combining 366.7 g of treated MQ resin from Example 1.1 (60% solids), 11.0 g of MH4Q3 resin, 2.2 g of hydride siloxane having the formula MDH30D15M, 1853 g of toluene, and 1100 g of vinyl siloxane gum having the formula MDVi44D7000M were combined in a high-shear mixed and blended for 90 minutes. The final PSA contained 41.8% solids and had a viscosity of 54,800 cP. A sample of the PSA was catalyzed with 100 ppm platinum as Karstedt's catalyst and cured to give a tape with a peel adhesion of 2 gf / inch. When applied to glass substrates, the PSA showed fast surface wetting and facile bubble removal. Upon removal, paintability of the glass substrate remained excellent, indicating negligible silicone transfer.

example 2.4

n Formulation with Gum Having Lower Degree of Polymerization and Additional Crosslinker

[0091]This example illustrates the effect of additional hydride siloxane crosslinker on the PSA from Example 2.3.

[0092]A silicone PSA was prepared by combining 20.0 g of the adhesive solution from Example 2.3 with 0.5 g of hydride silicone having the formula MDH4D17M. The composition was catalyzed with 100 ppm platinum as Karstedt's catalyst and cured to give a tape with a peel adhesion of 101 gf / inch. When applied to glass substrates, the PSA showed slow surface wetting. Upon removal, the adhesive left no visible residue on the glass substrate.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention is directed to pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs), more particularly the use of silicone pressure sensitive adhesives (SPSAs) in removable protective films for electronic components and electronic displays.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Pressure sensitive adhesives are frequently utilized in removable protective films for glass and polymer surfaces, especially the displays in portable computers, cell phones, electronics, and their components. Protective films may be applied to and removed from these substrates during manufacturing, assembly, shipping, and final use.[0003]In applications where a protective film is applied temporarily, it is critical that the film can be removed with low peeling force. If the protective film adheres too strongly to the substrate, removal can be difficult or cause damage to delicate surface features, such as printed designs or electronic traces. However, the film must also adhere to the substrate wit...
